Yes, I've added this argument to CFLAGS and am rebuilding now.

Of note, I rebuilt pgtk Emacs without native compilation in order to
save time. Emacs has not yet crashed since that rebuild.  Don't know if
this might be related.

I'm currently starting Emacs server with systemd and hoping it would
crash sooner, but not when I'm writing assignments. ;-)

Update: the rebuild failed with the following output:

  ELC      textmodes/less-css-mode.elc
  ELC      textmodes/makeinfo.elc
  ELC      textmodes/mhtml-mode.elc
